Number Of New Books
We have just received sev-

gie library. We also have
ordered supplements and our
encyclopedias, carrying them
to date and through 1942, as
they are published. This
should be very gratifying to
the public, as hiBtory is now
in the making with the wars
abroad.
We are planning a memo-
rial shelf, in memory of
someone who has passed on.
This will be an enduring
benefit to the living, and Is a
beautiful dedication to some
deceased Iriend or loved one.
We are also listing books
copyrighted prior to 1877
Wc have an old legal and
medical library donated to
the library years ago, and
we find many books dating
back over a hundred years
and more.
